Chapter 4433 Same

Xiao Xiao smiled.

“I didn’t bring an umbrella.”

"It's been raining these days, why don't you bring an umbrella when you go out?"

……

The child turned his head.

He looked up at his older brother.

"...I'll be home soon."

……

"You didn't expect it to rain, did you?"

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

"It has been cloudy since this morning."

“The rain has been intermittent.”

"Stopped."

"Stop when you get off."

"You are hoping for a lucky break."

……

The child looked away guiltily.

It was indeed that he was lazy for a moment and did not take an umbrella.

Thinking about going back soon.

A little rain doesn't matter.

did not think of…..
It's raining.

The rain is getting heavier.

……

He was in a hurry and didn't know which way to go.

Found this alley by accident.

His expression lit up with joy and he ran into the alley.

……

There is nothing in this alley.

Except for a trash can.

……

Without giving it a second thought, he immediately ran to the trash can and curled up into a ball, trying his best to avoid the falling raindrops.

……

"Why didn't you ask someone to take you home this time?"

Xiao Xiao thought of the child’s boldness last time.

……

The child pursed his lips.

There was no sound.

……

Xiao Xiao smiled.

"Let's go."

"I'll walk you home."

……

The child opened his eyes wide.

There was a glimmer of light in his eyes.

"Thank you, big brother."

……

"You're welcome."

Xiao Xiao curled the corners of his mouth.

"Who made us so destined?"

We met again in a short time.

Same weather.

Same dilemma.

For children.

They were all trapped by the rain.

Such a coincidence makes people sigh.

……

Xiao Xiao took the child out of the alley.

Suddenly, my eyes felt much brighter.

……

"Big brother, this way."

The child consciously took on the role of leading the way.

.....
The child walks very slowly.

Not like the bouncing around that many other kids do.

……

"Be careful."

Xiao Xiao grabbed the back of the child's collar.

……

The child suddenly came back to his senses.

Then I saw the electric pole just a stone's throw away from me.

My heart skipped a beat.

Almost, almost.

If the older brother hadn't held him back, he would have hit the telephone pole.

……

The child took a step back.

He turned to look at his older brother.

"Thank you, big brother."

……

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

"What are you thinking about?"

"So focused..."

……

The child pursed his lips.

What was he thinking about……

The child's already pale face became even paler.

He is thinking...

……

"?!"

The child subconsciously covered his forehead and looked at Xiao Xiao.

……

Xiao Xiao retracted his fingers and tapped the child's forehead.

"I don't mean to force you to answer."

"If you don't know the answer or don't want to answer, you don't have to answer it."

"It's ok."

"Don't worry."

……

The child was a little stunned.

My fingers tensed involuntarily.

The finger bones are white.

……

What did Xiao Xiao see?

"Come."

He walked to the side with the child.

……

"Give."

Xiao Xiao handed the sausage in his hand to the child.

……

The child took it blankly.

The rich aroma penetrated the child's nose.

The child couldn't help but sniffle.

It smells so good...the child's mouth was watering.

……

"Eat."

Xiao Xiao took a bite of his sausage.

Ok.

Not bad.

The grilled sausages in this shop are also pretty good.

……

Seeing this, the child also took a bite of the sausage in his hand.

The next second, the child's eyebrows curved.

It smells good.

Delicious.

The child was somewhat happy.

It was his first time eating grilled sausage.

It tasted as good as it smelled.

……

Xiao Xiao threw the bamboo sticks into the trash can nearby.

After the child took the last bite of the sausage, he stood on tiptoe and threw the bamboo skewer into the trash can.

The child licked his lips with some satisfaction.

Really delicious.

The child repeated these words in his mind for countless times.

.....
Xiao Xiao came to the alley where the child's home was again.

The door of the room where the enthusiastic old lady was before was closed.

I wonder if he went out?
……

"what happened?"

This time, Xiao Xiao walked the child all the way to the doorstep.

The childless mother showed up early and took the child away.

He looked at the child standing stiffly at the door and asked inquiringly.

……

The child was a little afraid to look at his older brother.

The child's eyes almost turned red from the helplessness and anxiety in his heart.

……

“…You didn’t bring your keys?”

Xiao Xiao thought about it and guessed.

Then he saw the child suddenly looking at him, and he knew...

"I got it right."

I really forgot to bring my keys.

……

The child dropped his eyes.

The two hands kept stirring together.

……

"You are so careless when you go out."

Xiao Xiao shook his head.

I forgot my umbrella and my keys.

Not bringing an umbrella can be understood as a matter of luck.

It's really wrong to leave your keys behind.

……

The child squeezes his fingers.

"I……"

He was also upset about his carelessness.

I am even more frustrated by the endless situations I encounter.

I felt a little aggrieved.

Because I am always in a bad situation...

There's air stuck in my chest.

He was feeling uncomfortable.

……

"Let's go."

Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly.

Now that things have come to this, there is nothing more to say.

……

what?
The child looked up.

go?
where to go?
……

"Find a place to sit down and wait for your parents to come back."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

"Or maybe you know where mom and dad work and want to go find them and get the key back now?"

……

The child shook his head subconsciously.

No.

He doesn't want to go find his parents...

If my parents knew that I left my keys at home and locked myself out...

Mom and Dad will be angry.

Although mom and dad would always know, after all, he didn't have the key to go home.

But the later this time comes, the better.

The child has a bit of an ostrich mentality.

……

"Let's go then."

Xiao Xiao was not surprised by the child's choice.

"It will probably be quite some time before your parents come back."

"Let's find a place to sit."

"Come back when the time is about right."

……

The child looked at the closed door of his house.

After hesitating for a while, he followed his older brother.

If he was alone, he would definitely not go anywhere and would just wait at the door.

But if Big Brother is with me...

The child chose to listen to his older brother.

……

There are no places nearby that are particularly suitable for children to spend time.

In the end, Xiao Xiao took the child to a cafe.

He ordered a glass of milk and a few plates of dessert for the child.

The waiter brought a puzzle box for the child.

……

Xiao Xiao put down the coffee cup.

He looked at the child.

"Don't you like puzzles?"

The child sat there blankly, holding the cup of milk in both hands, without even looking at the puzzle in front of him.

……

what?
The child looked up blankly.

what?
……

Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly.

"You seem to enjoy daydreaming."

"What are you thinking about?"

he asked casually.

Then I remembered that I had asked the same question to this child not long ago.

But the child did not answer him.

He thought the child would not answer him this time.

He thought it was just the child's rambling divergent thinking...
